The Final SDSS High-Redshift Quasar Sample of 52 Quasars at z>5.7
Linhua Jiang, Ian D. McGreer, Xiaohui Fan +14
We present the discovery of nine quasars at identified in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) imaging data. This completes our survey of quasars in the SDSS footp…
MApping the Most Massive Overdensities (MAMMOTH) II -- Discovery of an Extremely Massive Overdensity BOSS1441 at
Zheng Cai, Xiaohui Fan, Fuyan Bian +10
Cosmological simulations suggest a strong correlation between high optical-depth Ly absorbers, which arise from the intergalactic medium (IGM), and 3-D mass overdensities on sca…
Discovery of an Enormous Ly nebula in a massive galaxy overdensity at
Zheng Cai, Xiaohui Fan, Yujin Yang +12
Enormous Ly Nebulae (ELANe), unique tracers of galaxy density peaks, are predicted to lie at the nodes and intersections of cosmic filamentary structures. Previous successful se…
A survey of luminous high-redshift quasars with SDSS and WISE II. the bright end of the quasar luminosity function at z ~ 5
Jinyi Yang, Feige Wang, Xue-Bing Wu +13
This is the second paper in a series on a new luminous z ~ 5 quasar survey using optical and near-infrared colors. Here we present a new determination of the bright end of the quas…
Probing the interstellar medium and star formation of the Most Luminous Quasar at z=6.3
Ran Wang, Xue-Bing Wu, Roberto Neri +13
We report new IRAM/PdBI, JCMT/SCUBA-2, and VLA observations of the ultraluminous quasar SDSSJ010013.02+280225.8 (hereafter, J0100+2802) at z=6.3, which hosts the most massive super…
A survey of luminous high-redshift quasars with SDSS and WISE. I. target selection and optical spectroscopy
Feige Wang, Xue-Bing Wu, Xiaohui Fan +14
High-redshift quasars are important tracers of structure and evolution in the early universe. However, they are very rare and difficult to find when using color selection because o…
